Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to submit your paper(s) to our Special Issue on “Design and Control of High-Precision Motion Systems” in Actuators (ISSN 2076-0825). Both original research and review articles are welcome. Deadline: 31 December 2021.
Driven by the increasing demand from industry, high-precision motion systems require new design methods on mechanisms, actuators, sensors, and control algorithms to achieve faster response, higher repeatability, more compact size, and lower cost. Advances in high-precision motion systems will make them applicable to a wider range of industrial processes such as nanofabrication machines, hard disk drives, 3D printing devices, scanning and imaging systems, etc. This will also bring economic benefits in terms of product quality, manufacturing efficiency, functionality, and reduced cost. This Special Issue invites contributions from the aspects of mechanism design, system identification, control and estimation, and actuator and sensor design relevant to high-precision motion systems.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Actuators is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
